To celebrate hitting 14,000 followers on Bluesky, I'm... gonna shake my tip jars on Ko-Fi and Paypal below, because work's been slow this month and I've got a house move coming up at the end of April...
But I'll be also posting a big thread of cool games with under 100 Steam reviews! LET'S GOOOOOO!
might have made them a bit too small, bluesky compresion seems to have made them a bit blurry. maybe this'll fix it?
A screenshot of Pokemon Blue edited to have Critter, an anthropomorphic cat-monster thing, in place of the wild pokemon encountered. The text reads: 'Wild CRITTER appeared!'
bonus r/b version
A screenshot of Pokemon Emerald edited to have Critter, an orange anthropomorphic cat-monster thing, in place of the wild pokemon encountered. The text reads: 'Wild CRITTER appeared!'
i think there might be something wrong with my game...

"Goto your Steam™ library Leave a review for a smaller game you like Now tell me what it was" There's a very crudely drawn Steam logo in the middle. In the bottom right, there's an even crudely-er drawn frog, and the sideways text reads "I am a graphic design terrorist"
With regards to that last repost, reviews can mean a lot to smaller developers, so I'm gonna put out a little call to action. Everyone following me? DO THIS NOW! I'm asking for replies so more folks pick this up, and continue it. Please take this graphic and ask your followers to do the same!
I don’t mean to be dramatic but this motherfucker needs to be gone gone and anyone who worked for him, enabled him, supported him, or voted for him needs to be in prison at best
Picture of Marjane Satrapi alongside a quote from her. The quote reads: The world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you. And our governments are very much the same... - Marjane Satrapi, Iranian-French graphic novelist
Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.

just wanted to thank you for posting about shrimps and other pond life, your posts have shown me how wonderful even the smallest little pond creatures can be!
i should probably learn more about identifying different species of plants. then whenever i go for walks i can have the joy of being able to recognize all the different plants i see!
Alright, that's work done. Time to help trans folks be more visible.
Are you a trans game dev? Have you got something out now or coming soon? Say a little about it and link it and I'll give it a boost!
Hi hi, and thank you! I'm Maxi, trans masc solo dev of The Hayseed Knight!
Come hear the tale of Ader, or how a poor one-eyed farm boy who's got nothing left to eat but his dreams, accidentally becomes the greatest knight in the kingdom this fully voice-acted and animated picaresque Visual Novel!
Hey folks, for Trans Day of Visibility I am going to do another Indie #ShowCasey! 💙💗🤍💗💙
Are you a trans gamedev? Reply below with your game, tell us a little about it, and make sure to include a link to the store page. Everyone else? Signal boost some neat games!
One rule: No GenAI!
It's Trans Day of Visibility today. If you're trans and are raising money for something (I don't care what it is), reply to this thread and I will boost you.
If you are a cis person, take a look and find someone to support if you can.
Everyone give this a share after.
In the spirit of trans visibility, lemme just plug my ongoing project to document as many pre-2010 games as possible that had a trans person on the dev team. You might be surprised by what's on there. There's games going right back to the sixties!

It's Steam Sale time! Everything that I play and recommend gets added to my Curator page below. Want the deep cuts? Pick Discounts and scroll down - it's ranked by revenue, so the deeper you go, the more obscure the games get.
Also, always check IsThereAnyDeal to see if it's cheaper elsewhere!
ive also set up an irresponsible itch sale to help cover the money gap, doesnt include 10S FOREVER (which is on sale on steam rn!) but you can get ALL of the other 5 owch games for:
1 human dollar
hoping it helps w med costs if enough havent played em yet 🙏

Hi, hello, Virtue's Heaven the action/exploration platformer that took me almost a decade to make is currently 20% off on Steam.
If you want to have a good time AND do me solid, why don't you buy a copy?

Palantir has no place in our NHS.
The Labour government must get this Mandelson and Trump backed company out now.
Listen to what health workers are saying.

Hear me out...
Univerally praised games are neat enough, but nothing hits quite like something unpopular that speaks to *you*.
So show-and-tell: Link and Explain a game that's UNDERRATED (sub-500 user reviews), UNDERRATED (sub 80% score) or BOTH (ideally!) that is near and dear to your heart.

Your streams are always so fun to watch! Been watching them and drawing alongside them for the past few days, and it's been really fun! Doodled that one garden creature adopt you've been working on, as well as a little pixel art thing of Critter!
Kansas has, overnight, invalidated the drivers’ licenses of trans people, a pointless cruelty that upends their lives
If Brits think “it won’t happen here” think again! Groups in the U.K. who want the same thing are routinely invited to consult with Labour and normalised in our press!
Bumped it a couple times yesterday, but it bears repeating: If you have ANY interest in FPS games at all, this bundle is $17 of the best dollars you could EVER spend.
6.5 games (I recommend ticking the box to add Cultic Part 2 to the mix) that I have only praise for. And Selaco's only half done!
Art of Loop, one of my characters, bending backwards in a way no person with a spine would be physically able to do, looking up at the camera.
Art of Vector, one of my characters, surrounded by a few arrows.
Doodle of Orange, one of my characters, surrounded by fire and cinders, glaring angrily.
Doodle of an anthropomorphic dolphin leaning against a wall underwater.
Not done too much recently, mostly just been playing video games and doodling occasionally.
